Thinning Hair In Women
The most frequent cause of hair loss is low thyroid function, which is
common among menopausal women. Other causes include changes in hormone levels
and increased stress, either emotional or physical. Hair growth also slows down
with age, when hair does not replace itself as quickly after natural shedding. A
stylist can help with shorter layered cuts that provide more body. Using styling
aids specifically for stressed hair tends to reduce the risk of breakage.
Blow-drying incorrectly with a brush or curling irons, and rollers that are too
hot, have the possibility of causing breakage.
P.S.: Female hair loss has different degrees of severity, causes, and
treatments. Talk to your stylist about products available to help minimize the
issue. Nioxin and Joico’s Renu line are two possibilities. Hair like skin
degenerates with age, losing its ability to retain moisture. A shorter
layered cut can help camouflage a thinning hair problem. At Dazzles Salon and
Day Spa, our stylists believe that hair design is a creative process that is
achieved through careful consultation with you about your needs and preference.
A haircut includes a shampoo, conditioning, precision cut, blow dry and
finishing. Please call us at 845-897-5100 to schedule an appointment.

Help Me Find The Right Look!
Simple guidelines can help when choosing a new hairstyle for a special
occasion or just for a new look. Trying to accentuate the best facial features
while minimizing the least favorite ones is important. With a round face, a
longer style, perhaps shoulder length, can minimize the width of the face. A
hairstyle for a longer face might be a shorter one with bangs and hair shaped in
an outward direction to give the face a wider appearance. Finding pictures of
women with similar facial shapes and features will be most helpful to share with
a hairstylist. Showing pictures to a professional stylist will help the stylist
give specific advice about a hairstyle that can be tailored for each individual
facial contour.
P.S.: Sometimes it takes a few trials before settling on a new look. Honest
communication is needed by both parties to achieve the best results. The
shape of your face is an important variable to consider when selecting a hair
style. Whether you want to try a new look or need help maintaining your current
style, call Dazzles Salon and Day Spa at 845-897-5100 to schedule an
appointment. Our stylists take time to learn about your preferences and evaluate
your facial features before recommending a cut. A haircut includes proper
shampoo and conditioner, customized cut, blow dry, and finishing.
Let’s Split The Difference
Split ends occur when the protective cuticle is destroyed at the end of the
hair. The hair then splits into two or more strands. Once the damage has
occurred, the best way to deal with it is by getting a haircut. A hair stylist
can employ a number of different methods to combat split ends. One of the
simplest ways is to have the hair trimmed at regular intervals. If the hair is
long, this is particularly important. Split ends sometimes occur because
protective natural oils do not reach the end of the hair shaft, leaving it less
protected and causing it to split. Having a regular trim will cut out the split
ends and keep the hair manageable. Proper use of products and tools are vital to
prevent hair splitting in the first place. P.S. It is a myth that
split ends can be repaired. Prevention is key. Talk to your stylist about
products and the correct use of styling tools that can help you! Routine
haircuts and proper care at home can help you to achieve hair that is shiny,
full, and healthy. Please call Dazzles Salon and Day Spa at 845-897-5100 to
schedule an appointment today. Our stylists believe that hair design is a
creative process based on an understanding of your needs, achieved through
careful consultation with you. Maintain your energy level with a full body
massage that helps improves circulation and melt away stress.
Crimp It!
Crimping is creating a hairstyle by using a crimping iron to cause a
temporary change to the hair’s appearance and texture with heat. Crimping is
very versatile and can be used to produce many different types of looks. It can
be incorporated into an entire hairstyle or just used on selected parts of hair.
Crimping adds texture and fullness to hair, and it works very well with thinner
hair; however, it can make thick hair look “too big.” As with hot tools, the use
of thermal styling aids should be used to protect the hair and give shine. One
advantage to the procedure is that it can be washed out with just one
shampooing. If you occasionally want a new look, crimping your hair is one
option.
Too Much Washing
Washing your hair twice a day or more may cause damage to it by removing the
nutrients that help to protect and nourish it. It can also lead to loss of
moisture and protein, which will leave the hair very dry, dull, and limp, and
with brittle ends. If frequent washing of hair is unavoidable, then conditioning
the hair each time becomes important because it helps seal the cuticle and
replace lost nutrients. If hair is colored, it will need a moisturizer. Hair
that is blown dry daily will need a heat styling protectant. As for the scalp,
overuse of shampoos can cause irritation, eczema, and dermatitis. The natural
elements, hair coloring or perming and the heat of a blow dryer can weaken your
hair and make it look dull. Using conditioner can nurture your hair and restore
its beauty and shine.
P.S.: A hair stylist can analyze hair and recommend the appropriate treatments.
Switching products after a long period of time can help give it a new feel of
texture.
Razor Sharp
A razor cut is a type of cutting without the scissors. It is a completely
different technique than using scissors. A razor allows a stylist to remove any
unwanted hair while adding texture. The hair strands can be cut so that shorter
strands support longer ones. This method appears to add volume while at the same
time removing hair. It also helps the ends of the hair blend together. A razor
cut tends to work best with medium thickness of hair. Hair that is too thin or
too short will not behave as well once razor cut. A modification to razor
cutting involves using sharp scissors on dry hair to create a tapered effect
with more controlled shape. Talk to your stylist to determine what method will
work best with your hair type. A precision cut is the basis of any successful
haircut. Whether you want a new look or need help maintaining your current
style, please call Dazzles Salon and Day Spa at (845) 897-5100 to schedule an
appointment.
P.S: A razor cut is most often performed on wet hair for manageability and
comfort. A new blade can play a key role when razor cutting.
Chemically Straightening Hair
The most common reason that
people decide to have their hair straightened is to eliminate curls. Sometimes
this process is used to soften or eliminate wavy hair. Chemical hair
straightening, also known as relaxing, involves a process in which the basic
structure of overly curly or wavy hair is changed into a straight form. Both
relaxing and permanent waving utilize fairly strong chemicals that are applied
directly to the hair shaft. The objectives of both treatments are opposite of
each other. While a perm is designed to add curls or waves, a relaxing treatment
is designed to remove them. Chemical hair straightening is not a difficult
procedure, but it does require a thorough technical knowledge of the relaxing
process. If you have curly hair and want sleek, straight hair, straightening may
be an option.
The Comb Over
Baldness is a typical
pattern of hair loss caused by hormones and genetic disposition. Some men who
are concerned with hair loss might try anything in order to hide or even reverse
this process. They may treat this condition with a hair transplant, a hairpiece,
or even prescription medications. Often the first method of defense is to resort
to the “comb over,” which is growing the hair long on the top, parting it to the
side, and combing it over a balding area. This is rarely successful and calls
attention to the balding area in question even more. Instead of settling for
this, why not go to a hairstylist and see if a shorter, longer, or even sexy,
shaven head might look better? If you are uncomfortable about your hair loss,
changing your hair style is one option. As a full service salon, Dazzles Salon
and Day Spa welcomes all individuals, ages, and styles. A stylist can provide a
hair care program to meet your personal preference, hair texture, and facial
features.
Where’s the Pool?
Frequently swimming in
chlorinated pools can be damaging to hair because chlorine is a strong oxidizing
agent that tends to damage the hair’s cuticle, or the outer layer that protects
the shaft of the hair. One way of protecting hair is to use a leave – in
conditioner with UV protector. Wearing a swimming cap can also add protection.
Heading to the shower immediately after swimming is very important, as chlorine
water must not be allowed to sit in the hair and the conditioner applied before
swimming must be shampooed out. If you are in a chlorinated pool more than 3
times a week, it is recommended that you do a weekly clarifying treatment. To
help repair any damage, follow with a leave – in conditioner, applied to damp,
towel – dried hair, making sure to distribute it evenly to all parts of the
head. Full, healthy hair doesn’t happen by accident – especially not in the
summer. If you enjoy swimming in pools, protect your hair and have routine
haircuts.
Ready For Something on the Side?
If you are tired of playing it safe, try something on the side. That is, try
parting your hair on one side or the other instead of in the center. This look
allows you to wear a ponytail in a casual, low maintenance way that does not
seem fussed over. It also gives your hair the feel of side-swept bangs by
partially covering your forehead on one side without having to cut your hair. To
get the look you want with a side part, spritz long hair with a volumizer and
toss it around as you blow it dry. Then, part your hair just over the arch of
one eyebrow before pulling it into a low ponytail on the opposite side.
The summer is a great time to wear a
low maintenance ponytail. Spend your time enjoying your favorite outdoor
activities rather than fussing with your hair. Please call Dazzles Salon & Day
Spa at (845) 897-5100 to schedule an appointment. A stylist can recommend a look
based on your facial features, lifestyle, and personal preferences. We offer
haircuts, Manicures, pedicures, and formal hair design.
In A Hurry?
Women don’t always have all the time they need to style their hair. This is
where it helps to know some short-cuts when you are running late. If you are
among the many women who confess to skipping shampooing when they are late, a
dry shampoo may be just the thing to bring you back on schedule. Be sure to
apply it near the roots and brush it through your hair so that it absorbs oil
and restores volume. You might also want to use a vented brush when it comes to
blow drying your hair. This type of brush has holes at the back that allow hot
air to pass right through, taking moisture with it.
Our goal at Dazzles Salon & Day Spa is
to help you look and feel your best, everyday. Whether you would like a new
hairstyle or just a trim, we are here to meet your beauty needs. Our salon
offers a variety of services including perms, coloring, manicures, and
pedicures, as well as waxing and massage therapy.
“Let Us Dazzle You!”
Longer Days, Shorter Hair
As the days grow longer and the
weather becomes warmer, it is time to think about shorter hair. After all, we
generally wear less clothing and eat lighter foods during the summer, so why not
greet the heat of summer with a shorter cut? On the practical side, shorter cuts
keep us cooler and require less daily upkeep. These are steps in the right
direction for those of us who regularly exercise and relax outdoors. As far as
appearance’s sake is concerned, a short cut can be as sassy and sexy as it is
easy to care for. The trick to getting a good – looking short cut is precision.
Asymmetrical bobs continue to be a favorite cut this summer. During the summer
months, some women with longer hair prefer to switch to a shorter style that is
easy to care for.
Flowers in Your Hair
One of the biggest new trends in hair accessories this spring harkens back
to the “flower power” days of the 1960’s. Whether they are single buds or
sprays, flowers are springing up in hairstyles. These floral hair
accents give hair a decidedly romantic feel and are helpful in softening the
edges on sleek, pulled back hairstyles. Of course, adding flowers to long, wavy
hair is also a good option for quiet evenings with someone special. If a
prom or wedding is on the calendar, nothing goes with a bouquet or corsage like
complimentary accent flowers in a woman’s hair. As rule of thumb, brunettes look
best wearing bolder primary colors in their hair while blondes and redheads are
well suited to pastels. Whether you are attending a social gathering, going to a
prom, or having dinner with someone special, you can dress up your hair with a
simple accessory. At Dazzles Salon and Day Spa we can help you look your best
during the day and evening.

Manicure.
Work It!
The best way to deal with your hair is to play
to its strengths. That is to say that if you have beautiful curls, put away the
blow-dryer, instead towel dry your hair, (without friction) and then separate it
with a wide–toothed comb and scrunch in some serum for moisture and shine. Start
at the ends where hair is the driest. Twirl your hair with your fingers to get
your curls going, and allow hair to air dry. If you have long, wavy hair, you
need only to give it a casual flip to one side to get that sexy look. Simply
mist your hair with water and a styling spray. To soften, run a curling iron
over the top layers once it’s dry, and push the front to one side.
When drying and styling your hair, you need to consider its length, texture, and
color. Routine haircuts and proper care at home can help you achieve hair that
is shiny, full, and healthy.
Our stylists believe that hair design is a creative process based on an
understanding of your needs.
